Finally swapped out my busted CV. Only tool required for removal was a hammer!

I'm at that point.

Those look pretty good.

Curious... How was the install?

Took me about 30 mins to do mine, all you need is a power driver and a tape measure or other thing (stick, pipe anything you can mark to level them) to make sure they are level.

Definitely worth the money imho, keep most of the road gunk off the side of the truck.

Now that I've got the Roll-X, I've realized how dark the bed area really is. So I installed the LEDGlow bed light kit. Its not as bright as I'd hoped it would be, but this really was just a cheap and easy way of testing if I'll even use this feature. The upside is that the wiring is now all there, and if I wanted to upgrade the lights in the future, it wouldn't take much time to do so.

I re-installed the skid plate that I had Line-X'd on Friday when I had the bed done.



I had both sides coated and then trimmed some off were the clip nuts go and also to make the panel sit more flush.



Without any trimming-

Trimmed it out with a hammer and chisel for the clip nuts-

Trimmed off the back of the access cover so it would sit flat-

After the trimming, sits pretty flush-

I also had the silver portion of the front bumper Line-X'd-

I used some black touch-up paint on the bolts-

And the bed-

The cost for the bed, skid plate and part of the front bumper was $758 plus tax.


I think it's time we REALLY test out how strong rhino lining is! Haha

Originally I was going to save up my pennies and get a hornblaster kit, but my in-laws snagged these MPC horns from Amazon. They're about $170 with the compressor and tank. Everything I've found on them says they're 150 db, and I believe it!

Here's a little demo video I made...I couldn't wait to test these things out.
